So I decided to change a few things about the look of the blog, hope you like them :) I also decided to have the blog be named LethargicLass since that is it's web address as well as my on-line name for over 20 years now...

And because this is a boring administrative post, you get a picture of Opie!

I am very excited to be hosting a giveaway for my friend Cheryl. I met Cheryl after I bought one of her designs and she asked me if I would like to go over future patterns and let her know what I thought of them... are you kidding me? I love doing it LOL! I'm going to let Cheryl tell you all about herself now.

_________________________________________________________________

My name is Cheryl and I live in Greenville, South Carolina with my two children (a little boy who is 5 years old and in kindergarten and a little girl who is 3 (and loves playing with my fabrics almost as much as I do)), husband, dog, and a cat. When my daughter was a toddler she needed a quilt for her crib. I had always wanted to try quilting so with the help of hours spent learning through blogs, I made my first quilt and have not stopped quilting since then.

I have a degree in chemical engineering and part time as a patent agent for a private company that makes specialty textiles, chemicals, and carpeting. In my job I work with inventors to figure out what their inventions are, draft patent applications, and then fight to the patents to issue in the US and all around the world. I love math and technical writing which is why I think that drafting quilt patterns is one of the most enjoyable parts of quilting to me. I recently joined the Greenville modern quilt guild and the Foothills traditional quilt guild and am loving having interaction with other quilters and also spend a lot of time reading quilt blogs.

I have an etsy store (www.MeadowMistDesigns.etsy.com) selling my quilt designs and sewing accessories. To celebrate the launch of my newest two patterns I am having a celebration sale. All patterns are on sale for $6 from the normal $8, a 3 pack of patterns is on sale for $15, and I am offering free shipping on all sewing accessories from April 7th-17th.

Cheryl has decided that she would like to offer two of you, PDF copies of both of her new designs.
